PULSE CINEMA
Multi-Room Streaming Soundbar
Immersive Dolby Atmos® Sound
The PULSE CINEMA delivers big, lifelike sound from a single, sleek soundbar. With 16 custom-tuned drivers, including dedicated upfiring speakers and a center channel, it creates an expansive 3.2.2 Dolby Atmos® soundstage. From crisp dialogue to deep bass, every detail is elevated. You can personalize your soundstage with three adjustable Listening Modes – Movie, Music, and Late Night – each offering a distinct Dolby Atmos-enhanced profile. Setup is simple with HDMI eARC connectivity, eliminating the need for a receiver or extra gear.
Wireless Home Theater Simplified
Build a full surround sound system without the clutter. The PULSE CINEMA works seamlessly with other Bluesound speakers for a complete wireless surround setup. Everything is managed through the BluOS Controller app, making it easy to stream music, group zones, and control your system – or your entire BluOS multi-room setup – from anywhere in your home.
Adapts to Your Space, Automatically
Designed to fit your space, the PULSE CINEMA includes a wall-mount bracket or can be placed on a media stand. Its drivers and DSP automatically adjust based on orientation, so there's no need for manual setup. With its low-profile form factor, it blends into any room while delivering powerful performance.
All-in-One Performance for TV & Music
Whether you're watching a movie, listening to playlists, or playing games, the PULSE CINEMA handles it all. Built-in amplification and Dolby Atmos® decoding mean you get full-range sound with no AVR required. Just one soundbar – no racks, no receivers – for rich, spacious audio that's ready when you are.
Versatile Connections, Simple Control
The PULSE CINEMA keeps setup easy with HDMI eARC, optical and analog inputs, and a dedicated subwoofer output for wired or wireless bass expansion. Everything is controlled through the BluOS Controller app, so you can stream music, adjust settings, or create multi-room setups without the need for extra remotes or complicated interfaces.
